Message: Man I hate cold mornings! Yesterday I hit this very large dog going about 40-45 and broke my truck! I guess because it was so cold, I didn't have time to let it fully warm up, when I hit fido it broke the fromt bumper cover, pushed the ac condenser into the radiator and in turn broke the electric fan and shroud all to heck! I am taking this oppertunity to get rid of the old mechinical fan and replace it with a perma-cool 16" 2950 cfm electric fan. I know several people have done this, I have read the post. But I have not seen any follow up post on how well this idea has worked out for those who have done it.
If you have done shch a mod please share your results with me. Any HP gain, either actual or felt? Does the truck ever overheat? I have ordered the A/C relay to turn the fan on when the A/C comes on, and the fixed thermostat.
Oh yeah, on our trucks, Mine is a 2002, the original electric fan, does any one know if it was controled by a thermostat? And could it be possible to just use the old connector and "plug and play"? Or did it work off of some other way?
Thanks in advance

Message: yes, the fan is thermo stat controlled along with the a/c control. you might want to look at the Black Magic 180 Extreme by flex-a-lite also. here is a post someone on here put up. check it out:

I have read about the other fan options. The perma-cool pulled the lowest amps and flowed the most air. So you think that just plugging into the existing wiring will work without putting the relay and t-stat on it?

not even going to waste the time to respond.
